Meet The Team

A contributor for 30 years and editor for the last 10, Paul Miller oversaw the return of Hi-Fi News & Record Review to its specialist roots and yellow border and re-established its technical prowess on the world stage. He's tested more hi-fi than anyone in the business. Not bad for an ex-organic chemist. Paul is also the President of EISA.

In 1986, the new editor of Hi-Fi News was only the fourth in the title's 30-year history, but would go on to see us through the next two decades, during which the hi-fi scene changed beyond all recognition. Since leaving for semi'retirement in 2005, Steve Harris remains a uniquely valued contributor.

Ever wondered how reviewers built up their systems, and what their rooms are like? And how did they develop their reviewing techniques? Welcome to the listening room of the most influential and certainly the most entertaining writer in audio: Ken Kessler

It's said that hi-fi, and especially loudspeaker performance, owes as much to art as to science, but audio journalism has all too often lost sight of the science completely. No-one can have done more to redress the balance than Hi-Fi News consultant technical editor Keith Howard.

A lifelong enthusiast, John Bamford was already a respected audio journalist when, in 1991, he became the industry's best known poacher-turned-gamekeeper by joining Pioneer. Ten years ago he happily turned poacher again, writing exclusively for Hi-Fi News, until he was diagnosed with cancer in 2015. John passed away in Sept 2018, but we will always remember him as the passionate enthusiast and engaging writer celebrated on this page. RIP, our good friend and colleague.
